Folks,
I've not been able to pick and sing for 13 years and counting, but since word of this broke, my stock is through the roof. Really weird!!!!! People who knew "vaguely" that I did something with music, have been sending congratulations all day long.

Dan, Kendall, Jacqui -- you made uithappen. I am terribly happy for you!! But please know that, even if only one song by ol' Art is on the CD set, I am thoroughly enjoying the vicarious spasms of orgasmic delight I am experiencing. This will be, pure and simple, an on-going love-in for everything Bruce Phillips stood for. We have a huge chance, now, to tell so many out there who never heard of Utah Phillips and his exemplary life exactly why the Wobbly Preamble was so absolutely right on in predicting the the greed-fueled depression we are enduring now.

I'm proud to be a part of this project with so many incandescent artists. Thank you for having me do my part of it.

Love to all,

Art Thieme

POWER (and a Grammy) TO THE PEOPLE!!!



Step by step, the longest track
can be burned, can be burned.
Many folkies sneak attack
grammies earned, grammies earned.
And by Union, Utah's will
can be accomplished still...
Notes and hearts will rise and fill
with all we learned, all we learned.

Last night I booked the hotel for that weekend - we can cancel up to the day before if necessary. Now I'm checking airfares and will be talking to my financial adviser as to available funds to allow us to get to California.

This will all be just about two weeks after Kendall's next bout of surgery and that has to be taken into account. I hope that we can get there - it really is a once in a lifetime thing for us.

We're trying to get some publicity going to bring this to the attention of the voters, telling the story of why and how it happened and of the amazing generosity of the performers, many of whom paid out of their own pockets to put a track on the CD. If anyone out there can help with newspaper articles or mentions on radio shows we would be grateful.

All proceeds go to support Utah's family. It's quite a bargain (2 CDs for just $15), as well as terrific listening!

The CD set was given to me during a month-long stay in a hospital burn center and the singing of all involved has helped me through some hard times then and since. A concert in Washington DC was one of the highlights for me of this past year. Best of luck to all involved in its making, which includes a number of folks I'm grateful to know.
